Sonnet

What to Write About
Ms. Watson told me to write a sonnet.
I though to myself; what should I write about?
Should I write about Laura Ingles bonnet?
Should I write about a great big-ole drought?
Should I write about things I hate, or like?
What about lions, tigers, bears, oh my?
Should I explain about riding my bike?
I might decide to tell about peach pie.
I could talk about a red 44 Chevy.
I could tell you about my little green zippo,
or taking my first love out to the levy.
Should I tell you about a big grey hippo?
Should I talk about a pick or a comb?
Well, I think this concludes my sonnet poem

  1. Hey, very funny. I like the humor to this sonnet. I've been struggling my self to write a sonnet. The way you relate your sonnet to everyday life or the class to be more specifically that is a great way to write a sonnet. Again great and funny sonnet, also I'm not making fun of your sonnet, but rather like the humor of your sonnet.

  2. I like your sonnet. It is very good and it also has a touch of humor to it. I like it because it is as if you wrote a sonnet without realizing it and it turned out to be very good.
